cross chargabilty.
my wife and I filed 485 under the cross chargeabilty in October 2022. Since then there has been no update on the 485 cases. Our EAD and AP cases were approved though. Is anyon in the situation where their 485 is still pending under the cross chargeabilty?

@Saher Mohammed I applied in Sept 2022 under cross chargeability, still pending. What is the current location of your case? Moved to a field office?
Saher MohammedMay 2, 2023
@Shan Bet my application is with NBC. it’s not moved to FO.
Shan BetMay 2, 2023
@Saher Mohammed You sure cross chargeability is applied to your case? I had to open the service request for the same
Saher MohammedMay 2, 2023
@Shan Bet I am not sure about it. how did you open the service request?
Shan BetMay 2, 2023
Chat with Emma agent and ask them to open a service request. Tier2 officer then will call you

@Shan Bet If a tier 2 officer calls, what details should we provide for cross chargeability? What questions will the officer ask? Can you please elaborate?
Shan BetMay 2, 2023
@K S The reason for the service request and explain them that your PD is not current and your spouse is ROW, so you want to apply cross chargeability to your case for prompt adjudication

K SMay 2, 2023
@Shan Bet Appreciate your prompt reply! Were you asked for any additional documents by the officer? I'm from India and my wife is from ROW. My EB1 PD is December 2022. My case moved to CRP. I had to chat with Emma to request for a call from tier 2 officer. I'm waiting for a call from them. I called USCIS to check what's going on. My call was routed to a tier 1 manager and she advised me to send the documents to the field office proving that cross chargeability applies for my case. I had a chat with Emma after a week and the agent said my case moved to my local field office. No clue what's happening.

@K S I got the email from the field office and asked me to send in writing the cross chargeability request and we did that. Been a month now and we are waiting to hear. Since your case is already moved to a field office, I guess cross chargeability is applied. Which field office?

I got CRP when my case was at San Fernando Valley FO. It then moved to Helen FO. What about you? How many field offices did it move?
Shan BetMay 2, 2023
@K S As far as I know it is at san diego fo since Jan
K
K SMay 2, 2023
@Shan Bet is that your local field office?
Shan BetMay 2, 2023
@K S Nops

K SMay 2, 2023
@Shan Bet Thank you for letting me know. I'm not sure why they sent my case to local FO after CRP.
P lMay 2, 2023
